Title: Great Sail Post by: DN 5449 on December 27, 2010, 06:43:35 PM Just finished haveing one of the most excellerating days sailing in my life.15-20 knts of steady south winds ,about a 2 mile course,nice smooth ice with zero hazards.I wasd going almost dead down wind sheeted in hard with one runner just skimming the surface for over 2 miles.These are awesome sailing machines.Can not wait for tommorow more of the same wind predicted.

Title: Re: Great Sail Post by: KB [us5219] on December 28, 2010, 09:37:26 AM I think a lefty at Sault would be a shorter route? Not gonna happen now as I have Ice in my front yard for 15 consecutive days and a bunch of Michigan Sailors coming down for some practice today! Its blowing SW 15-20 with some sticky drifts here and there. They might soften up today and tomorrow. Tomorrow we have lighter air followed by rain Thursday morning. Looking for a Zamboni to shape things up nice for our Sunday Series Races. ???
